Dominion Atlantic Railway Steam Locomotive No. 25, Strathcona, Pontgravé.
Built by Baldwin in March 1901, builder number 18815, this engine was numbered No. 25 and was originally named "Strathcona" receiving the name "Pontgravé" for a short time only. This locomotive was scrapped in 1940. (1)
The mistake in identifying this loco as No. 5 on Page 60 of "Canadian Railways In Pictures" by Robert F. Legget is most likely that only the 5 can be seen on the sanding tower.
